Design and Testing of a Prototype Eddy Current Actuated Valve for the ITER Shattered Pellet Injection System

Reliably mitigating disruptions is essential for ITER to meet its long-term operational research plan without damage to the in-vessel components. Currently, the shattered pellet injection (SPI) technique is the most effective radiator of thermal energy and has been chosen for the baseline disruption mitigation system (DMS) for ITER. The SPI process uses cryogenic temperatures to desublimate material into the barrel of a pipe gun forming a solid cylindrical pellet. Pellets for ITER will initially be hydrogen and hydrogen-neon mixtures. Once formed, pellets are dislodged and accelerated using high-pressure gas (40-60 bar) delivered by a fast-opening valve. The solenoid valves currently used for SPI experiments will not operate in an ITER environment due to the large background magnetic field. An ITER prototype fast-opening valve, called a flyer plate valve (FPV), has been designed and has undergone a wide range of testing. The FPV operates by pulsing current through a pancake coil that is closely coupled with a ``flyer plate.'' The flyer plate is an aluminum plate in which eddy currents are generated creating a repulsive force from the pancake coil. The force generated in the flyer plate rapidly lifts the valve tip off the seat and delivers a pulse of gas to the rear of the pellet, breaking it free from the barrel and accelerating the pellet downstream to its intended target. The design of the valve has been iterated on over the lifetime of this project, as the DMS for ITER shifted from massive gas injection (MGI) to SPI. The most recent design has been tested, and operational ranges have been mapped. The valve must survive 3000+ cycles in an ITER-like magnetic field. The principal functional requirement of this valve is to reliably dislodge and accelerate hydrogen (or H-Ne mixture) pellets into ITER. The valve was mated with an ITER SPI test stand and has been shown to be capable of launching pellets reliably. The valve and power supply design will be discussed in this article, along with the various testing setups used to determine the feasibility of this valve for use on ITER.

Highly Reversible Plating/Stripping of Porous Zinc Anodes for Multivalent Zinc Batteries

Zinc continues to garner immense interest due to its versatility as an anode material in several configurations utilizing either alkaline or mild-pH electrolytes. Current research on using mild-pH electrolytes has improved the rechargeability aspect of Zn-based batteries since Zn2+ is solely utilized for plating/stripping of Zn. Several studies have incorporated Zn metal foils, yet, dramatic improvements can be achieved by expressing Zn as a porous structure. Herein, we use a quasi-pulsed electrodeposition process to prepare a conformal Zn coating onto 3D porous copper foam. By tuning the electrodeposition parameters, we achieved an optimal Zn coating that undergoes reversible plating/stripping when tested in symmetric Zn cells, which supported a low overpotential of ~60 mV for up to 100 cycles. We further investigated changes in the surface morphology by studying the Zn surface of both foil and 3D structure using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray micro-computed tomography. Both techniques showed that the Zn foil undergoes dramatic alterations at the surface, which results in inhomogeneous deposition of Zn, whereas the 3D form exhibited minimal changes. Lastly, we paired both Zn foil and 3D Zn with vanadium oxide and demonstrated that the porous structure supports high rate capability and high specific capacity.

DEVELOPMENT OF AN APPROACH FOR DOWNBLENDING AND DISPOSITION OF IRRADIATED GRAPHITE FUEL

The IGR reactor, a pulse-type test experimental reactor, reached full power in 1961. The reactor contains a center axial experimental ampoule that is subjected to a large pulse of neutrons (neutron flux maximum density of 7×1016 n/cm2·s, peak power 10GW) when the reactor is operated. The fuel form for the IGR reactor is graphite cubes and rods impregnated with highly enriched (90%) uranyl-dinitrate (UO2(NO3)2·6H2O). This fuel is eligible for return to Russia for reprocessing under the Russian Research Reactor Fuel Return program. However due to some technical and licensing issues it was decided to immobilize this fuel in Kazakhstan. The disposition approach thus selected for the spent HEU fuel involves down-blending of the fuel followed by cementation. Development of the process for down-blending and subsequent cementation requires a process that satisfies many criteria, including fissile content, compressive strength, permeability, and containment of radioactivity, among others. One key goal of the final product is to meet the criteria for termination of safeguards. This paper will describe the overall challenge associated with disposition of irradiated HEU graphite spent fuel, the identification of the objectives of the disposition process, and the constraints associated with development of the process and the waste form.

Pixelated plastic scintillator array manufacturing using fast-, photo-curable resin

Pixelated plastic scintillator arrays can serve as high efficiency and high resolution neutron imaging detectors. Manufacturing these arrays is intensive in both time and labor. This article presents a fabrication method based on additive manufacturing for two-dimensional plastic organic scintillator arrays using a custom-built automated assembly machine and a custom photocurable resin that has significant non-aromatic acrylate oligomer content. The process involves two main stages: fully autonomous production of one-dimensional layered arrays, followed by semi-autonomous cutting and stacking to form two-dimensional pixel arrays. One-dimensional arrays were manufactured at a rate of around 4 layers per hour with minimal defects and tight dimensional tolerances, while two-dimensional arrays up to 7 x 7 pixels and 70 mm in length were completed in approximately 3.5 hours. Final arrays exhibited dimensional deviations of less than 0.5 mm. Two-dimensional arrays read out by a multi-anode photomultiplier tube demonstrated per-pixel position resolution and pulse-shape discrimination, enabling gamma–neutron interaction separation in mixed radiation environments.

Structural dynamics of a thermally silent triiron( II ) spin crossover defect grid complex

The structural evolution of spin crossover (SCO) complexes during their spin transition at equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium conditions needs to be understood to enable their successful utilisation in displays, actuators and memory components. In this study, diffraction techniques were employed to study the structural changes accompanying the temperature increase and the light irradiation of a defect [2 × 2] triiron(II) metallogrid of the form [Fe II 3 L H 2 (HL H ) 2 ](BF 4 ) 4 ·4MeCN (FE3), L H = 3,5-bis{6-(2,2'-bipyridyl)}pyrazole. Although a multi-temperature crystallographic investigation on single crystals evidenced that the compound does not exhibit a thermal spin transition, the structural analysis of the defect grid suggests that the flexibility of the grid, provided by a metal-devoid vertex, leads to interesting characteristics that can be used for intermolecular cooperativity in related thermally responsive systems. Time-resolved photocrystallography results reveal that upon excitation with a ps laser pulse, the defect grid shows the first two steps of the out-of-equilibrium process, namely the photoinduced and elastic steps, occurring at the ps and ns time scales, respectively. Similar to a previously reported [2 × 2] tetrairon(II) metallogrid, FE3 exhibits a local distortion of the entire grid during the photoinduced step and a long-range distortion of the lattice during the elastic step. Although the lifetime of the pure photoinduced high spin (HS) state is longer in the tetranuclear grid than in the defect grid, suggesting that the global nuclearity plays a crucial role for the lifetime of the photoinduced species, the influence of the co-crystalising solvent on the lifetime of the photoinduced HS state remains unknown. This study sheds light on the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of a thermally silent defect triiron SCO metallogrid.

Radical Treatment of Haloacetonitriles in Aqueous Systems: A Kinetic Study

Haloacetonitriles (HANs) are important drinking water disinfection byproducts formed through the chlorination and chloramination of amino acids. Although HAN concentrations in treated water are usually lower than trihalomethanes, they are still of major concern due to their higher cyto- and genotoxicity. HANs undergo chemical transformations by hydrolysis on the hour to week time scales; however, for possible direct water reuse situations, their active removal using advanced oxidation/reduction processes (AO/RPs) may be required. We report here our systematic kinetic study of the four major AO/RP radiolysis species, oxidizing hydroxyl (·OH) and sulfate (SO 4 −· ) radicals and reducing hydrated electron (e aq − ) and hydrogen atoms (H · ) with five HANs (mono-, di-, and trichloroacetonitriles and mono- and dibromoacetonitriles) in water measured using electron pulse radiolysis techniques. At ambient temperatures and pH 1−7, significant reactivity was found for e aq − ( k = (1−5) × 10 10 M −1 s −1 ) and H · atoms ( k = (1 − 40 × 10 7 M −1 s −1 ), but only minimal oxidation by ·OH ( k = (0.6−10) × 10 7 M −1 s −1 ) and SO 4 −· ( k = (0.2−4) × 10 6 M −1 s −1 ) occurred. These data suggest that the large-scale AO/RP treatment of these contaminants will be effective for deaerated reducing systems, where the reductive electron-induced degradation of HANs will occur.

Heat Loss Correction Factor for Fireball Yield Measurements

Fireball yield calculations are performed using Taylor’s radius equation. However, at early times, the x-ray diffusion process has a significant effect on the size of the fireball, and at late times the shock wave degenerates into an acoustic wave. Thus, earlier research determined that the range of validity for Taylor’s equation was in the scaled time regime of 0.004–0.008 s. So, when performing a yield calculation, the only values that are analyzed are those that lie within that range of validity. While Taylor’s equations offer an approximation of the scaled yield, they also rely on several assumptions. For example, the equations assume that the shock wave is adiabatic, when, in fact, the first light pulse on the nuclear test films, which occurs as the shock wave is forming, suggests that the shock wave is not adiabatic. Furthermore, the amount of heat loss from the shock wave that occurs prior to the scaled time regime of 0.004–0.008 s can change significantly as a function of air density. This may cause the shock wave radius to be smaller relative to the assumed adiabatic shock wave. Therefore, the objective of this project was to determine the correction factor for heat transfer, which should be applied in order to produce a more accurate approximation of the weapon’s yield.

Fusion gain from cylindrical liner-driven implosions of field reversed configurations

MagLIF experiments [M.R. Gomez et al., Phys. Plasmas 22, 056306 (2015)] on Z have demonstrated the basic principles of Magneto-Inertial Fusion (MIF) for wall confined plasmas. Other MIF schemes have been proposed based on the liner implosion of closed field magnetically confined plasmas such as Field Reversed Configurations (FRCs) [T. P. Intrator et al., Phys. Plasmas 15, 042505 (2008)]. We present a semi-analytical model of liner driven FRC implosions that predicts the fusion gain of such systems. The model predicts a fusion gain near unity for an FRC imploded by a liner driven by the Z Machine. We show that FRCs could be formed and imploded at the Z facility using the AutoMag liner concept [S. A. Slutz et al., Phys. Plasmas 24, 012704 (2017)]. Furthermore, an initial bias magnetic field can be supplied by the external magnets used in MagLIF experiments. The reverse field is then supplied by an AutoMag liner, which has helical conducting paths imbedded in an insulating substance. Experiments [Shipley et al., Phys. Plasmas 26, 052705 (2019)] have demonstrated that AutoMag can generate magnetic fields greater than 30 Tesla inside of the liner. We have performed 2D Radiation MHD simulations of the formation and implosion of an FRC, which are in good agreement with the analytical model. The FRC formation process could be studied on small pulsed power machines delivering about 1 MA.

Design of a Robust Memristive Spiking Neuromorphic System with Unsupervised Learning in Hardware

Spiking neural networks (SNN) offer a power efficient, biologically plausible learning paradigm by encoding information into spikes. The discovery of the memristor has accelerated the progress of spiking neuromorphic systems, as the intrinsic plasticity of the device makes it an ideal candidate to mimic a biological synapse. Despite providing a nanoscale form factor, non-volatility, and low-power operation, memristors suffer from device-level non-idealities, which impact system-level performance. To address these issues, this article presents a memristive crossbar-based neuromorphic system using unsupervised learning with twin-memristor synapses, fully digital pulse width modulated spike-timing-dependent plasticity, and homeostasis neurons. Additionally, the implemented single-layer SNN was applied to a pattern-recognition task of classifying handwritten-digits. The performance of the system was analyzed by varying design parameters such as number of training epochs, neurons, and capacitors. Furthermore, the impact of memristor device non-idealities, such as device-switching mismatch, aging, failure, and process variations, were investigated and the resilience of the proposed system was demonstrated.

Ultrafast Photofragmentation of Ln(hfac)3 with a Proposed Mechanism for forming High Mass Fluorinated Products

Abstract The photo-induced dissociative-ionization of lanthanide complexes Ln(hfac) 3 (Ln = Pr, Er, Yb) is studied using intense ultrafast transform limited (TL) and linearly chirped laser pulses in a time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry setup. Various fluorine and Ln-containing high-mass fragments were observed in this experiment, including the molecular parent ion, which have not been seen with previous studies relying on relatively long-duration laser pulses (i.e., ns or longer). These new high-mass observations provide important formerly missing information for deducing a set of photo-fragmentation mechanistic pathways for Ln(hfac) 3 . An overall ultrafast control mechanism is proposed by combining insights from earlier studies and the fragments observed in this research to result in three main distinct photo-fragmentation processes: (a) ligand-metal charge transfer, (b) CF 3 elimination, and (c) C-C bond rotation processes. We conclude that ultrafast dissociative-ionization could be a promising technique for generating high-mass fragments for potential use in material science applications.

Measurements of atoms and metastable species in N 2 and H 2 –N 2 nanosecond pulse plasmas

We report time-resolved, absolute number densities of metastable N 2 (A 3 Σ u + , v = 0, 1) molecules, ground state N 2 and H atoms, and rotational–translational temperature have been measured by tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy and two-photon absorption laser-induced fluorescence in diffuse N 2 and N 2 –H 2 plasmas during and after a nanosecond pulse discharge burst. Comparison of the measurement results with the kinetic modeling predictions, specifically the significant reduction of the N 2 (A 3 Σ u + ) populations and the rate of N atom generation during the burst, suggests that these two trends are related. The slow N atom decay in the afterglow, on a time scale longer than the discharge burst, demonstrates that the latter trend is not affected by N atom recombination, diffusion to the walls, or convection with the flow. This leads to the conclusion that the energy pooling in collisions of N 2 (A 3 Σ u + ) molecules is a major channel of N 2 dissociation in electric discharges where a significant fraction of the input energy goes to electronic excitation of N 2 . Additional measurements in a 1% H 2 –N 2 mixture demonstrate a further significant reduction of N 2 (A 3 Σ u + , v = 0, 1) populations, due to the rapid quenching by H atoms accumulating in the plasma. Comparison with the modeling predictions suggests that the N 2 (A 3 Σ u + ) molecules may be initially formed in the highly vibrationally excited states. The reduction of the N 2 (A 3 Σ u + ) number density also diminishes the contribution of the energy pooling process into N2 dissociation, thus reducing the N atom number density. The rate of N atom generation during the burst also decreases, due to its strong coupling to N 2 (A 3 Σ u + , v) populations. On the other hand, the rate of H atom generation, produced predominantly by the dissociative quenching of the excited electronic states of N 2 by H 2 , remains about the same during the burst, resulting in a nearly linear rise in the H atom number density. Comparison of the kinetic model predictions with the experimental results suggests that the yield of H atoms during the quenching of the excited electronic state of N 2 by molecular H 2 is significantly less than 100%. The present results quantify the yield of N and H atoms in high-pressure H 2 –N 2 plasmas, which have significant potential for ammonia generation using plasma-assisted catalysis

High-throughput multimodal exploration of a nanocrystalline Cu-Ag library

Sputter-deposited, nanocrystalline Cu-Ag thin films produced across a broad compositional and deposition-parameter space were evaluated to unravel the process-structure-property relationships important for creating hard, conductive electrical contacts and coatings. Combinatorial deposition involving pulsed direct current magnetron sputtering of elemental targets enabled swift examination of nearly the full range of alloy compositions and a relevant portion of deposition atomistics. Several high-throughput characterization modalities were employed to evaluate the chemistry, structure, and properties of the films. The resultant hardness, modulus, film density, crystal texture, and resistivity were analyzed in terms of key deposition characteristics (incident atom kinetic energy and incidence angle) predicted by binary-collision, kinematic Monte Carlo simulations. The study revealed improved hardness, parabolic resistivity dependence on composition, and compositional and process dependencies of film tarnishing. The results are discussed in the context of variations in microstructure and film density. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction demonstrate several forms of compositional variation including solute segregation to grain boundaries as well as periodic, intragranular compositional modulations. Annealing of a Cu-rich alloy film exhibiting grain boundary segregation showed that this as-deposited, compositional variation is not stable above 100 °C. Finally, the Cu-Ag system is shown to have potential for hard, conductive, tarnish-resistant and room temperature-stable nanocrystalline thin films across the composition space.

Atomic-Scale Interface for Pt Nanoparticles on SrTiO 3 (001)

The interfacial structure formed by Pt nanoparticles grown epitaxially on a SrTiO 3 (001) surface by pulsed laser deposition was studied by X-ray standing-wave (XSW) excited core-level photoelectron emission. The XSW-generated 3D atomic map of the Pt and interfacial oxygens for the oxidized Pt/SrTiO 3 interface differs significantly from that of the as-deposited interface. After oxidation, the Pt atoms shifted upward and their atomic occupation at fcc-like sites evolved as the oxidation temperature increased. Interfacial oxygen atoms were differentiated from bulk O atoms by the chemical shift in the binding energy of their 1s electrons. After oxidation, the interfacial oxygen atoms rearranged to form a TiO 2 bilayer at the interface. Furthermore, these results provide a more complete description of the strong metal–support interaction process at the interface.

Growth of concomitant laser-driven collisionless and resistive electron filamentation instabilities over large spatiotemporal scales

Collective processes in plasmas often induce microinstabilities that play an important role in many space or laboratory plasma environments. Particularly of note is the Weibel-type current filamentation instability, which is believed to drive the creation of collisionless shocks in weakly magnetized astrophysical plasmas. In this paper, this instability class is studied through interactions of ultraintense and short laser pulses with solid foils, leading to localized generation of megaelectronvolt electrons. Proton radiographic measurements of both low- and high-resistivity targets show two distinct, superimposed electromagnetic field patterns arising from the interpenetration of the megaelectronvolt electrons and the background plasma. Particle-in-cell simulations and theoretical estimates suggest that the collisionless Weibel instability building up in the dilute expanding plasmas formed at the target surfaces causes the observed azimuthally symmetric electromagnetic filaments. For a sufficiently high resistivity of the target foil, an additional resistive instability is triggered in the bulk target, giving rise to radially elongated filaments. The data reveal the growth of both filamentation instabilities over large temporal (tens of picoseconds) and spatial (hundreds of micrometres) scales.

Reconceptualizing the Ir III Role in Metallaphotoredox Catalysis: From Strong Photooxidant to Potent Energy Donor

Dual Ir III /L n Ni II metallaphotoredox catalyzed C(sp 3 )–C(sp 2 ) cross-coupling reactions are widely assumed to proceed by photoinduced single electron transfer steps due to the highly oxidizing Ir III * excited state (Ir III = [Ir(dF(CF 3 )ppy) 2 (dtbbpy)] + [PF 6 ] – ; dF(CF 3 )ppy = 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine; L n = dtbbpy = 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine). Using time-resolved absorption and emission spectroscopy, we reveal that energy transfer between Ir III * and various LnNi II precatalysts and intermediates with k q ≥ 10 8 M –1 s –1 also drives catalysis. Specifically, the excited states of L n Ni II dihalide precatalysts/organometallic intermediates accessible by energy transfer appear to drive bond homolysis, halogen radical elimination, and reductive elimination reactions that facilitate formation of cross-coupled products. Energy transfer dynamics consequently circumvent the need for photoinduced electron transfer, thereby extending substrate scopes to coupling partners that cannot be oxidized by Ir III *. Within a cross-electrophile coupling model reaction between 4-bromobenzotrifluoride and bromocyclohexane, energy transfer activates the L n Ni II precatalyst at early reaction times before nucleophilic reductants are present. In the absence of Ir III , direct excitation of L n Ni II (Br) 2 also activates the precatalyst to form a L n Ni II (Br)(Aryl) intermediate. To compare energy transfer and electron transfer kinetics, we determined rate constants for reductive quenching by Br – (k SET = 4.1 × 10 8 M –1 s –1 ) and for the subsequent electron transfer from reduced Ir III•– to L n Ni II (Br) 2 (k SET = 4.1 × 10 7 M –1 s –1 ) using Stern-Volmer analysis and pulse radiolysis, respectively. Energy transfer rate constants are competitive with the electron transfer rate constants and energy transfer is a parallel pathway within metallaphotoredox catalysis. Exploiting the energy transfer mechanism, we demonstrate highly selective cross-electrophile coupling between 4-chlorobenzotrifluoride and bromocyclohexane to form exclusively cross-coupled product. Here, with alkyl-trifluoroborate nucleophiles that do not reductively quench IrIII* emission, transmetalation with L n Ni II (Br/Cl)(Aryl) followed by energy transfer also drives excited state reductive elimination to form C(sp 3 )–C(sp 2 ) cross-coupled product. Similarly, energy transfer rather than Ni II oxidation drives C(sp 2 )–OR reductive elimination, despite the strongly oxidizing ability of Ir III *. In total, these reactions demonstrate energy transfer processes from Ir III * to L n Ni II in metallaphotoredox catalysis that can unlock alternative reactive pathways.

Imaging transient molecular configurations in UV-excited diiodomethane

Femtosecond structural dynamics of diiodomethane (CH 2 I 2 ) triggered by ultraviolet (UV) photoabsorption at 290 and 330 nm are studied using time-resolved coincident Coulomb explosion imaging driven by a near-infrared probe pulse. Here, we map the dominant single-photon process, the cleavage of the carbon–iodine bond producing rotationally excited CH 2 I radical, identify the contributions of the three-body (CH 2 + I + I) dissociation and molecular iodine formation channels, which are primarily driven by the absorption of more than one UV photon, and demonstrate the existence of a weak reaction pathway involving the formation of short-lived transient species resembling iso-CH 2 I 2 -like geometries with a slightly shorter I–I separation compared to the ground-state CH 2 I 2 . These transient molecular configurations, which can be separated from the other channels by applying a set of conditions on the correlated momenta of three ionic fragments, are formed within ∼100 fs after the initial photoexcitation and decay within the next 100 fs.

High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse Testing of Photovoltaic Modules

This report details the test setup, process, and results for radiated susceptibility testing of multicrystalline silicon photovoltaic (PV) modules as part of the EMP-Resilient Electric Grid Grand Challenge Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) project at Sandia National Laboratories. Testing was conducted over October 10-17, 2019, where 8 photovoltaic modules were exposed to E1 transient pulses with peak field levels up to 100 kV/m. Modules were terminated in a resistive load representing connected components. State of health testing conducted via I-V curve tracing of the photovoltaic modules showed no observable loss of device function due to large electric field transients. Differential mode currents were measured on the order of 10's of amps for up to a microsecond following the radiated field pulse. Common mode currents took the form of a damped sinusoid with a maximum peak of 10's to 100's of amps with a resonance near 60 MHz.
